[edit] Knifers and Spotters

While these two activities are functionally identical, the origins appear drastically different and any convergence of these articles must pay respect to these differences. Spotting is never called "kniving" where I am from (NZ) and I'm sure vice-versa is true in other parts of the world. Also worthy of mention in any convergence of these articles is that "Spotting" refers only to the consumption of cannabis or hashish while hot-kniving may be used to take other drugs.

agree with the merge, seems to be the same 87.80.70.88 13:55, 18 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Spots

'Spots' are what teenages have on their faces.... at least in the UK thats the definition 99.9% of people would give the word. Can we add a disambig on this? 194.70.193.179 10:53, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] hmmm..

-I believe this practice is more commonly known as "Hot-Knives", "Knife-Hits", etc, and not spotters. I have to disagree with the first poster and say that spots seems more like something associated with more drugs than knife hits.-

[edit] Hot Knives

Spots or Spotters and Knifing, Hot-Knives, Knife-Hits, and Knivers all appear to be the same, but I think that given the different geographic locations where the termonolgy comes from, they should not be merged into one article. Also, where I'm from in Canada Hot-Knifing only implies marijuana, hash, or oil, and not for any other drugs. I've even smoked roaches from joints between two hot knives, but never heard of anyone using the blades for anything else. We commonly refer to them as 'Blade Hoots' or 'Doing the Blades'. I've never heard the term spots or spotters before. To me, a spotter is a person who helps you lift weights by standing around and helping you if you are unable to complete your lift. The spotter keeps you from injuring yourself.
